Death Notice: Nicolas “Old Nick” Satanis

Nicolas “Old Nick” Satanis, 66 and six months, entered the Eternal Fires of Hell on Sunday, March 27. Old Nick, though known by all, was loved by few, save a handful of teenage fans of thrash metal.

“Old Nick” origin stories are shrouded in mystery but most likely Satanis was born on or near June 6, 1951, in a barn on the outskirts of Nearbytown. His mother was a goat, his father likely was not. They’re probably dead.
